In this delightful episode, Payal speaks with Mr.Yeo and Ms. Karen, who share their memories of growing up in very different parts of Singapore during the 1950s and ’60s.
Mr. Yeo recalls his early years along Hong Kong Street, near the Singapore River, where he watched bustling scenes of bumboats unloading rice and rubber at Boat Quay and remembers how the once murky river transformed into today’s lively waterfront. He also reminisces about the Cavenagh Bridge, which used to open for large vessels to pass through.
In contrast, Karen paints a charming picture of life in Changi Village, surrounded by wooden kampong houses, fields, and the golden sands of the beach, before moving to Canberra. Together, their stories beautifully capture the transformation of everyday life across generations from river trade and Kampong living to an evolving, modern city.

In this heartwarming episode, Payal sits down with Anthony Wong as he takes us on a nostalgic journey through his childhood at Jiak Kim Road, once known as Jiang Road or Tiong Bahru. Anthony vividly recalls growing up in a close-knit community, spending carefree days playing street games, flying kites, catching spiders, and inventing fun without gadgets. He paints a touching picture of life in a humble four-storey block where thirteen family members shared one bathroom, yet lived harmoniously under one roof. Through Anthony’s memories, we glimpse a simpler time filled with imagination, togetherness, and the unspoken warmth of community life that shaped his early years.

In this episode, Payal speaks with Jeremy Tay, a community leader whose lifelong dedication to social work and public service has shaped many aspects of Singapore’s community development. Trained in social work, Jeremy shares his experiences serving in various roles from director at Outward Bound Singapore to Dean of the National Community Leadership Institute, and as the founding president of Morningstar Community Services, which supports families and strengthens relationships. Reflecting on his childhood in Ang Mo Kio, Jeremy recalls growing up in a small provision shop house along Jalan Hwi Yoh, surrounded by friendly neighbors and the nearby old folks’ home.
His fond memories of playing endless games of hide-and-seek and cycling through village roads offer a touching glimpse into a simpler, more connected Singapore, one that continues to inspire his passion for community bonding today.
